Optimize for Growth - Organic and Acquisition-Based

You want to grow your market share, and EnSite wants to help. Over the years, we've made a science of analyzing clients' unique business processes, their data and its structure, human and technology resources, and the complex requirements of the utilities our clients operate under. We put this expertise to work on every Safari Suite implementation, ensuring our clients are equipped to grow in their existing markets or via acquisition.

Product and Industry Expertise

EnSite's history of energy industry experience and technology expertise uniquely positions us to go beyond the role of software provider. More than a technology vendor, EnSite pursues added value for clients by blending these strengths with in-depth knowledge of the EnSite Safari Suite® system’s potential to adapt to new market demands.

New Market Evaluation

Whether your business is moving into new markets organically or through acquisitions, EnSite can help. Our analysts are experienced at interpreting utility tariffs and operating procedures and envisioning how the utility's unique requirements will be accommodated in the EnSite Safari Suite® system. This evaluation process provides the client with a ready assessment of the product's ability to support them in a new market and sets the stage for any modifications that may be required. EnSite can then help the client plan to implement operations for the new market, through its business process analysis services.

Acquisitions

Planning to purchase? EnSite can help by providing a neutral, unbiased evaluation of potential sellers, offering to analyze and summarize integrity of existing data, deal structures, and customer mix. We can also help devise the plan to integrate operations for the customers to be acquired, from data migration strategies, to analysis of new utility tariffs and procedures, to development of any new processes or product functionality that may be required. Whether simple third-party analysis is required, or a complete plan for management of the acquisition in EnSite Safari Suite®, we are ready to help our clients make it happen.

Invoice and Communications Enhancement

For today’s competitive energy marketer, the invoice represents the main communications channel to end users. At EnSite, we help clients communicate – and market – better with enhanced invoice design and content. Our ability to create and manage multiple invoice designs for use in the EnSite Safari Suite® system means clients control the presentation of their brand as well as the invoice data. We can help clients operating in multiple regions tailor their invoice, and their message, for each identified consumer audience.

Coupled with the power of EnSite Safari Suite, EnSite's invoice design services can be the key to gaining an edge in customer relations.

For new customers (or existing customers' new market acquisitions), our implementation options and time-tested process ensure that we deliver the right product, set up and configured for your unique needs and your specific markets.

The result? A system that feels intuitive, that seems like it was built for the way you do business and designed for your markets.

Because that's what Safari Suite is all about.

Retail Electricity Sales and Service - Customized and Configured for Your Market

We get it. No off-the-shelf system is ready to run your business.

You have unique pricing scenarios, contract arrangements and deal structures.

You are operating under multiple Utility tariff sales classes in twelve states, each with unique regional differences.

You have three regional offices. They can't share data (or they must share data).

You outsource some (but not all) customer service to a local call center

Your parent company hosts all enterprise applications at its North Carolina data center - and you're in Denver.

Safari can handle that. All of it. And more. In fact, it already does.

Anyone selling you a retail energy management system should be familiar with the array of complex, unique business practices and third-party obligations that characterize competitive electricity marketing. What's more, they should be ready to advise you on how their system will accommodate these needs.

We're ready - give us a call. We'd be glad to demonstrate how we did it (and how we can do it for you).

As a marketer, perhaps the most important thing for you to know about our Safari Suite system is that we build it just for you. We recognize that as robust and configurable as our base system may be, you will have unique needs - whether in reporting, interfaces, special pricing, invoice presentation, EDI transaction management - or all of the above.

Just as important, we recognize that the ever-evolving demands of your market will not magically stabilize after implementation of your new office system. EnSite is a partner with our clients, always ready to enhance existing functions or develop new functionality to satisfy your changing market needs.

We Need to Talk (About Data)

These days, your front office system's ability to communicate with third party systems could not be more critical. At the same time, you need assurance that your data is secure and safe. EnSite has you covered.

EnSite partner TierPoint provides our state-of-the-art data center for EnSite's hosted (SAAS) implementations - or we can deploy to the data center of your choice. Our customers use standard remote desktop connectivity to gain access to the secure system and to Safari Suite.

Equally important is the ability to move data efficiently between systems. Safari Suite is ready - with many standard import protocols for customer usage (daily or monthly), customer payments, and miscellaneous charges (to name a few). Safari Suite also includes an on-board Data Extract feature, providing an easy way to move large sets of data out of the Safari database to the destination of your choice - and yes, it's customizable.
